Student Internship Program (SIP)

In 2016, the Office of Campus Life and Student Learning launched the Student Internship
Program at Modesto Junior College. This program allowed ten MJC students the opportunity
to work in offices on campus as student ambassadors and learn basic leadership roles,
and job skills as they apply in the workplace. Interns worked side by side staff
learning the business of how a college operates. Students were assigned to the Campus
Life office and the Basic Skills/Outreach office. Each intern was awarded a $500 honorarium
made possible by the donation of Roy Shlemon Foundation and the MJC Foundation.

Mission Statement

The mission of the Student Internship Program (SIP) is to develop, engage, and teach
students leadership, job skills, and professional development through participation
in campus departments.

What Happens in SIP?

For the Fall and Spring semesters, Student Interns are assigned to various departments
on campus. Students will work side by side staff, learning the business of how a
college operates.
